I am really big fan of Ethereum I am waiting for Ethereum 2.0.
Many Crypto experts said that Polkadot is the upcoming Ethereum killer . I don't think so. You guys know more share your opinions..

I believe polkadot is the another hype , the project hasn't
Delivered anything of value yet how about we wait until
We create  something that somebody can actually use.

Polkadot is currently the toughest competitor for ethereum compared to other platform blockchains like eos, stellar, waves, neo and it is actually very difficult for polkadot to become ethereum killer considering ethereum still has advantages over this, but if ethereum makes a mistake it's not impossible polkadot will become ethereum killer.

Polkadot is new but it's still not as good as it uses the Rust programming language. It is quite unfamiliar to most developers, with only a handful of projects developing on Polkadot at the moment. Polkadot's value is being FOMO only by everyone. Many projects are competing with Polkadot such as Tronix, Waves, Tezos, Cardano, Stellar ...
Ethereum users are crowded, and building a smart contract on Ethereum is dominating over other projects. The only problems facing Ethereum are transaction costs, transaction speed, and scalability. We need to wait for Ethereum 2.0 to launch before we can conclude who is the real competitor to Ethereum.

That's just gimmick that already created to spread the hype for DOT platform, there was no a lot of differences with the gimmick that has already made when EOS has come to the market. Many people said that will be ethereum killer but the fact said the different thing when EOS was getting surpassed by another platform like LINK or even DOT itself.

I didn't even believe about this and that is BS. Parachain looks so complicated compared with ERC20.
Just wait for DOT to make the further development and we will see.

Polkadot really is a good coin but not the Ethereum killer. Every year there are many projects that are blossoming but few of them give the return to the investors maybe they have some unique project. But, Ethereum has the first runner which has already reserved its place in the 2nd or 3rd position after the bitcoin.

Yes, eth killer means we should see a progress or any working scalability before the eth killer statement would becomes real. A lot of people are hoping that eth is still thr major altcoins but due to a lot of new player, there will be segregation on traders and investors. But Im sure eth eth killer will come and replace them on their tank as top altcoin.

Ethereum has face tougher competitions in the past just amongst the projects that you have mentioned. And so far, there are not even close to what Ethereum has achieved, so I doubt that Polkadot will be this Ethereum killer because there is none. What we are seeing is that Polkadot is just being hype, specially that we are in the bull run already. Every new project will have this kind of hype, similar to 2017. But I doubt that they can get even close to Ethereum as far as support or consensus in the altcoin community.

Seriously? I mean, it's too early to tell, Polkadot is a good coin but Ethereum has been proven a good asset as it has survive many times in the toughest situation. Every time there's a new hype coin, some people would think they will be the best altcoin and will beat ETH and even think will beat bitcoin but it has to be tested through time as not all the time the market is bullish.

$38,862,051,232 is ETH's marketcap while $3,752,489,511 for Polkadot, that's too far away mate.

I dont think polkadot will be last long at the top 10 because it still a new project that still got a lot to improve first. To challenge ethereum at the second top will be impossible cause ethereum price are more stable then polkadot. Polkadot price is just the hype and after the hype gone i bet polkadot will drop from the top 10. 

actually, only real comparison to Polkadot is Cosmos network, since they are both offering block-chain interoperability and smart contracts functionality, all others are offering only one, or part of both, but Polkadot and Cosmos seem to be most comprehensive at the moment
would also add Zilliqa, but i do not know why are they that much behind when speaking about smart contract platforms, they already have implemented sharding, similar to what Ethereum is trying with ETH2.0

this thread reminds me of the yfi/fyi defi that also said to be the killer of btc where thier value skyrockets over what btc achieved on the past but did the btc got killed ? no because btc was still there but only the value of btc decrease a bit and i think that defi coin is somehow responsible for that . moving on theres this thread that and theres this polkadot  .  this polkadot has recieved some notable feedbacks and i dont consider it like the coin i mentioned above , in other words this has a chance to score versus eth

For being an ETH killer it has to go a long way and to catch up the ETH will take considerable time and community support. As for me , now is the time to buy in to DOT from Binance , as the price has gone down .

Polkadot is not Ethereum killer

The main difference between Polkadot and
Ethereum is that it's hard to run shit on Polkadot.
To launch projects on the Polkadot network, you will need to deposit a lot of DOT tokens to join the network, so many projects attract these tokens in exchange for their own.

I have never heard of Polkadot myself, so for now we also cannot immediately judge that Polkadot is the Ethereum token killer for the future, although some experts say so, but it could be that it will miss estimates when this.

I don't know if polkadot will become the ethereum killer but it's good that there are some competition to ethereum platform. The gas fees is unbearable recently.

I would like to believe that it's a hype unless they can prove that they can deliver good features and platform we have a reason to believe that many people are shilling this project, Polkadot on their website stated that they are they are still in their launching stage so people are still looking on their potential

https://polkadot.network/launch-roadmap/

We always have these experts to have a say. They can conclude everything that they can. I'm only ignoring this polkadot before but after reaching good number on the rankings, I've started to noticed it.

I haven't get into its roadmap but if it's getting a demand and this is just temporary, it doesn't have a sense. But once the defi dumps and it's becoming forgotten while it stays, then there's something in it.

Yet another overhyped crypto. It will never be an ETH killer!

some cryptocurrencies that people have claimed to be "The ethereum killer" in the past but ended up where they belong, waaay below Ethereum: TRON, EOS, Cosmos, Nano, XRP, NEO, etc, etc

IMO, the whole "ethereum killer" thing is part of the cycle many (if not every extremely overhyped crypto) in the market will or has gone through at some point (like the aforementioned coins above), and these cycles usually fade very quickly...it's like people need some sort of idea that can fuel their belief of "this coin is going to moon" and "this will be the next big crypto"  in order to minimize the negative sentiments like "i think i fell for the FOMO" or "the price will tank very soon" or "i shouldn't have invested in this"...typical behaviour in this market

we may agree on Polkadot, but you know day will come for Ethereum killer, if they do not speed-up their work on ETH2.0 and improved scalability, we all know it, maybe that wont be Polkadot or Cosmos, or other that you have listed, but without technical improvements that these two are offering, Ethereum cannot support all the projects that are currently deployed on the network and high fees will influence changes, primarily for micro-transactions projects, such as block-chain games, to try and find other platforms that will suit there needs for low-fee transactions

Apart from the problem of Ethereum gas costs which have been unbearable lately, if new tokens such as polkadot can be considered as the killer of Ethereum tokens that have long stood firmly in crypto, then it is certain that Polkadot tokens are better tokens than Ethereum tokens, but if it happened the other way around, then the predictions from the experts would only become funny and trite and would become the material of ridicule from others later.

It all depends on Etherum itself in my opinion, because ETH will always have the advantage of being the first platform.
If they manage to release ETH 2.0 in the near future then Ethereum won't be killed by anyone in my opinion.
If they fail to deliver ETH 2.0 though then it's a different story. The Defi hype already showed that current ETH is already close to its limits in terms of scalability.

The polkadot project has no doubt been very productive and it has gained substantial growth in a short while, but I don't see the project to be as laudable to be a fierce competitor for ethereum. The ethereum 2.0 project will be coming to live very soon and most of the issue we see in ethereum would be no more.

I have read about the project. Polkadot seems to be overblown a lot, a new project, and the same costly token creation costs as NEO did. With a price tag of 30 cents during the ICO and current prices, this project has increased in value more than 100 times. If I invest now, it can be a big risk for me. Perhaps I will consider investing in the project when the bear market happens.

Ethereum has been on top of their game for many years, and they bring a lot of innovation in the industry, Polkadot is a new project and people can see it's potential but it will take some time before they can challenge the position of Ethereum, this is good for the industry that Ethereum is challenged so they can improve more after Ethereum is having issues in their fees.

It is very provocative that the title of this topic, for me Polkadot will not be able to beat Ethereum for now. It is too early to conclude
that Polkadot can kill Ethereum, we have to see Polkadot's development first. There aren't even any popular projects that use Polkadot's
blockchain network yet. Now Polkadot's popularity is rapidly increasing, because there was hype like the DeFi projects. So there is no hard
evidence yet, which shows Polkadot can beat Ethereum.

First, Polkadot was developed by some members of the Ethereum project and they know the downsides of the Ethereum network.
I wonder why they chose the RUST programming language over GO. Both of these languages ​​are unfamiliar to most programmers.
Polkadot solved the transaction costs and blockchain scalability problem of Ethereum. The problem is that people cannot pay too much for creating tokens on the Polkadot platform, which means Polkadot is not gradual for the majority of developers so Polkadot's ecosystem is not as rich as Ethereum.
The loser of Ethereum will be a better project, easier to develop, faster, more costly, and speedy.

NEO, EOS, ADA, CHAINLINK, DOT and all of the smartcontract platforms that have already created after ethereum have already made their own self proclaimed to be the ethereum killer while they have no power to do that. They can't even take the XRP's position.

DOT is a new thing and people are still exploring it and no need to rush to call that as ethereum killer or something that is still too far to be achieved by DOT platform.

We will see whether people will migrate from ethereum or not.  ;D

You could have imagine their marketcaps bro, the distance between the ethereum and the Polkadot is very much wider to compare the two. Ethereum has long had tougher competitors and none was able to dethroned it from it state, what I can see as a strong competitor to ethereum will be TRON but still will be a more tougher competition between the two. Eth 2.0 will give something new which will give it a highlanding in future.

Polkadot has emerged as a project that is solid and basically aims to become a bridge among ethereum and other blockchains while maintaining its own unique identity so i do not think there is anything like ethereum killer here.

So I'm hearing from that ultimately ethereum is the only one that can engrave itself and sort of give out the lead to competitors.
Otherwise, there is no such company to really compete with ethereum on its current level

I do not know what polkadot is all about and only a song can get into my head after reading the word. Itsy bitsy tiny winny yellow polkadot bikini.

Anyway, as I made a quick search over the coin, I found out that it is all about scalability, innovation and security.
Well it is a good project in my own opinion but it could not kill the ethereum network and all of the non sense talking were just exaggeration about this project. Yes it is good but no way it could kill ethereum. Besides the polkadot coin still making things to prove their worth if all they say about their project could really be done.

Polkadot is a good project, not just a HYPE. about Polkadot is Ethereum killer doesn't seem to be afraid like that. forever Ethereum will not be replaced even though many more projects have emerged with fresh concepts.

I am not overly confident but Ethereum already has a lot of users and there are also many DeFi projects that use the Ethereum blockchain.

I will rather opt for Elrond (eGLD) to be a very top competitive for ETH than Polkadot. Having a look on the team, weekly progressive report and the GitHub activities will tell you that this would silent ETH on a long run. In fact, they are the one to implement sharding technology in which ETH is still finding a solution for

They can and will fix the scalability issue I'm sure of that, they will not let things ruin their project because of the scalability, I'm sure they are working on it, I don't know Polkadot, but every time there is a new platform coming up its always hype as the one that will replace or kill Ethereum, let us see first what they are bringing to the people or let us wait for the results.

It is. But we cant totally bet on it until the real product of polkadot is running. Eth killer is a bigger claimed that should be backed by real working product that can be seen and prove that with its usage ethereum is gonna be second to that. There already a lot of claims about eth killer but no one can prove its usefulness of effectiveness in every aspect of blockchain like scalability and useability.

I wouldnt really count on any hype but im looking forward to polkadot. Tho i wouldnt say it prematurely that it would replace ethereum. Ethereum afterall already has a stable grounding and polkadot is so far only appealing because of the hype.

I don't think Ethereum going be kill by any coin or Polkadot going to kill anyone. Just more choose for developers, check out Ark and this video just another player https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VshHRXQfxVY

I'm a fan of Polkadot, smaller fee and faster
You should really take a look at
Equilibrium
They integrated with
Polkadot
and currently are pushing cross-chain with the highest possible liquidity by maximizing liquidity via non-custodial cross-chain liquidity pools

If people talking about polkadot taking over ethereum just because etheruem fee is currenlty high I don't think that is sufficient reasoning because polkadot itself hasn't tested its capability of scalability and relatively a young platform and still not tested neither mature enough for us to assume its real capability.


It's smaller in fee and faster yes but the traffic itself is not that much compared to Ethereum and what makes Ethereum gas so expensive is the traffic.

Many have been called the Ethereum killer but they don't mean shit. I don't know why this suddenly moon this year even though it was created way back with Gavin Wood as the founder. The only thing I can see is that for a new coin (not project since this was created 3 years ago), it's too overpriced and overhyped because of the new denomination which makes this project 100x smaller compared last time making it have an unusually large marketcap.

I'm really expecting this to dump hard this coming months once people realize this.

Yes I really think that Polkadot could be the Ethereum Killer, probably not tomorrow but for the end of the next year will be probably. The polkadot technology is one of the best that I have ever seen and read about, we will see great things about this project

We mustn't take crypto expert's words seriously their job is to create hype and false news so they could make huge profit with their investment whenever a top coin performs good these crypto expert come up with their non reasonable statements just for their own profit that's what they always do anyways I strongly believe that polkadot is not capable to compete with ethereum but it may be a decent coin which can give more impressive performance.

There were already too many Ethereum killers! ;D
I think that Polkadot will just add to this list... But of course it will not become a killer!

By the way - there is a small project Chromia, which will have Byzantine fault tolerance and sharding, like ETH 2.0... The launch of mainnet is scheduled for late September... Another Etherium killer! ;)

Polkadot has been making wave in the cryptocurrency space lately, several people have made substantial profit trading the DOT token. The polkadot ecosystem has been around for only a few months and has made great progress in the space.

Polkadot is still new coin and performing well still now. Today most of the new tokens are created and developed on the basis on ethereum platform and these tokens are known as ERC20 tokens. Recently people are moving to TRX for few reasons like Ethereum transaction fees, time wasting in transaction. Hence TRX is cheaper and quick in transaction. If ETH makes mistakes, hence Dot and TRX can take the place of ETH. It is too early to compare with ETH, we have to wait another few years.

If you think about it right now the competitor for the real Ethereum killer is BSC. we see now BSC is starting to show great performance to be able to compete with ethereum. while polka dots do not have any development.
but it is not strong enough even the BSC is not able to kill ethereum compared to polka-dots. it's just an issue

Ethereum's real killer is BNB. look how many people are talking about the binance smart chain lately, and take a look at the performance of the BNB coin in the market today. Polkadot can't be aligned with ethereum yet, so there's no way DOT can kill ethereum. Polkadot is only used as an alternative choice and has not been able to compete with ethereum.

But DOT more likely much better rather than some "Ethereum Killers" Out there? On-Chain Governance & Forkless Upgrade is the main features that i suppose not exist on other chain, There also some alternative like BSC, TRX, etc but for now DOT is the better choice from my perspective. Anyway will look about this Chromia, Thanks for the info mate!

Whether or not Dot is the "ethereum killer" or another project will be, history tells us new technology comes along and surpasses legacy technologies, so maybe this year , 10 years from now or 100 someone will come up with something that diminishes eths use case.

Polkadot, Cardano, EOS, etc are all run by morons.

To kill ETH all you need to do is copy/paste it and make it faster and cheaper. That's exactly what CZ did with BSC, and it's surpassed all the other silly ETH competitors very quickly.

Polkadot is really a good project, I like it to be honest. But I'm not sure about whether it will be able to take Ethereum's place. And Polkadot's circulating supply amount is around 8 times Ethereum's. It is also one of the things that will prevent Polkadot from being more valuable than Ethereum.

you have a point! lol and look at what BSC is doing right now, you can see the impact alone on the price of BNB. you will see new projects utilising BSC network or old projects suddenly switching to BSC. so where are the other eth killers doing? even if BSC is a centralised one, still these devs and users are going into it because of the popularity of binance as well as cheap fees.
no doubt they step up its position in the market and now currently holding the top 3 position. eth team should rectify their gas fee prob very soon or else, projects are turning away from their platform.

You feel very strongly. Fast and centralized platforms were invented enough before binance.
If something happens to binance and their bridge stops working, then you will look at your millions in the blockchain, from which coins cannot be withdrawn.
EOS raised $ 4 billion on ICO, no one needs this platform.
Ethereum and Polkadot make decentralized platforms where you can safely store your funds.

BSC has the exact same security model as ETH

Binance does not have access to your private keys, just as ETH devs don't have access to your private keys. You can self-custody BNB just as you self-custody ETH.

You seem to be thinking about your funds held on Binance exchange, which are not yours, they are Binance's funds.

Sure, Binance can change their protocol whenever they want, but so can ETH (if you haven't noticed, they hardfork about once a month... ex: EIP 1559 is an extremely controversial hardfork which devs are bruteforcing in despite a lot of legitimate pushback)

In BSC, you're trusting Binance devs, in ETH, you're trusting ETH devs.

You don't need a fully decentralized system to host DeFi/NFT projects; you only need enough for them to be open and KYC-less. BSC opted for more centralization with PoS, so they can gain 100x cheaper and faster transactions. A very smart trade.

If regulators ever attempt to control these DeFi projects, projects on ETH are just as vulnerable as BSC (start fining amazon for allowing ETH nodes to be run on aws, and ETH dies; it needs commercial cloud services to run nodes)

And binance-bridge facilitates moving assets from ETH to BSC. If this died, BSC would not die. Also this service does not need to rely on Binance the exchange; it can be done all on-chain

Know what  ? im all in .... DOT

Polkadot is indeed a great project offers something quite unique, but I doubt if Polkadot is the real Ethereum killer, because if it is true then it should be having higher marketcap than Binance Smart Chain now, if you go on CoinMarketCap site you will see that bnb is among the top 3 coins now, since it simply solves the basic problems people have with Ethereum Network which are high gas fees and slow transactions, although BSC is a copycat of Eth network with some features, I think there's a possibility of bnb reaching eth if the ETH 2.0 won't be out in the next 2years,so for me BSC is eth killer.

I can invest in a coin because how good it is, but none of these altcoins claiming to be Ethereum killers can do what they claim that they can do,; they can’t kill Ethereum, eth is going to be there and these altcoins are just going to make waves and before you know it they will die off quietly. But, indeed there are lots of them that are really good and they are worth investing.

I believe that they are going to be doing really well in the future, but not as a replacement for Ethereum. Polkadot is going to be one of those really good projects that are here to stay. I am not looking forward to anything more than that.

you are right, I think it is like that too. BNB is the closest and most potential asset at the moment when we look at the increasing popularity of BNB. It's just a matter of waiting for the capitalization of BNB to continue to increase, even though it is still too far from ETH.
this situation could have gotten even closer when ETH did not immediately resolve their problem of exorbitant transaction fees. BNB by launching the BSC is already very popular nowadays and is a good solution for traders.

If I am correct Polkadot is still on testnet and hasn't arrived officially. It is not as old project as Cardano and we have to give it time. Cardano has produced nothing yet and still investors are giving it chances to proceed with development. I think that Polkadot is about hype too, and that these prices are often misrepresenting the functionality of blockchain systems under development, however we don't have reasons not to think that Polkadot may have a good chance in becoming an ethereum killer project.

comparing ethereum to polka dots is simply not correct...
polkadot new appeared but surprisingly were able to achieve the current price and market capitalization. if we think polkadot will 'kill' ethereum then we look like someone who underestimates eth. Let's stop the 'ethereum killer' joke.

I am not sure about your statement, in my opinion, it is not a polka-dot who will compete fiercely with ethereum, but bnb or binance that will make ethereum shift from the throne that it currently has.

I think Polkadot is going to be an excellent complement to Ethereum in a multi-chain ecosystem. I don't see it as a replacement or killer.

Their creators have stated that the objective is to work with Ethereum not replace it and I think that's the correct approach.

I agree with 3meek and also keep in mind it is not always about who kills whom. There is much more collaboration between the projects than you think and most things can also be easily integrated by others as well if the adoption is worth the effort and brings value for the user.

Well, Uniswap is the worse and stressful I've ever used...

Now I am using a non-custodial Divi Wallet. DIVI is a DEX platform.

Divi is overvalued af. I recently bought some ERC20 altcoins and because of the high ETH transaction fee at the moment in combination with the UNI approach, I paid a 90$ transaction fee total.

Meanwhile, Bithumb global is asking me for 44 dollars fees for a $400 transfer! WTF!

I am still not sure if someone says that, many statements say that and ethereum continues to be the best and is still in second place after bitcoin, therefore I am not sure what is mentioned above.
apart from polkadot, i have the feeling that maybe ethereum will be replaced by bnb instead of polkadot. This is my version because I see the development of BNB which continues to grow and the demand for it is also increasing.

I don't think so, even though DOT is currently very popular, but I believe DOT will never be able to kill Ethereum, because there are still many people who support Ethereum and that makes Ethereum still survive until now, especially if ETH 2.0 has been launched, then I believe Ethereum will become more popular and the price of Ethereum will increase higher than now.

Polkadot looks like a distraction till BSC took over with surprisingly high adoption, the emerging high numbers of decentralized exchanges has really helped the migration and adoption of BSC. The ability of a thousand transaction per second ,very transaction low fee and exchanges were influential to the adoption. Polkadot's pooled security and trust-free interchain transactability has not been enough to compete with Binance chain.

no, even Polkadot still can't be on the same level as ethereum. ethereum's killer is the Binance Smart Chain, check out today's BSC and you'll understand why I'm telling you this. BSC is growing very fast and maybe its popularity will overtake ethereum in the near future. while DOT is only an alternative option and is still not quite competitive.

I agree more with you. but it looks like it will still take longer.
Ethereum is a great asset and it won't be easy to beat.
BNB and BSC currently control trading rather than ethereum. However, in the ethereum network, there are still a lot of strong holders who will be able to increase trade when ethereum problems are resolved.
while Polkadot is a network that has recently gained popularity this year. there is still a long way to go to equate DOT with ETH or BNB.

The BSC has been able to "almost' dethrone ethereum for now. seen from the BSC ecosystem which began to develop rapidly with the increasing number and the rise of defi in the last few months. I think polkadot have the same potential as BSC, it's just that Polkadot still can't make a flashy breakthrough like BSC did

I believe in the future of Polkadot and what they are building and the problem of scalability and bridge they aim to solve, it's a real ethereum competitor but not yet a killer, we wait for ethereum to deplore their ETH2.0, if this doesn't come early as expected and gas fee keeps going up, DOT ecosystem will give ethereum a big run as many project will migrate to their network.

Believe me, those things that are meant to kill ETH, they made a stupid choice. There is no need to bring a large coin to the world and be a target, this will only make the reputation of those projects lower. They need to do this to get a lot of attention, but I believe the opposite will come.
However, from a different perspective about DOT, you should not be assessed that way. Since it's perfect and potential, I'm not talking about ETH's replaceable potential, but one thing is for sure, the coin is absolutely very good.

BSC Man is a cryptocurrency exchange protocol built by cosmos SDK for better and faster development and will target blockchains for cross chain integration such as Bitcoin, binance chain  Polcadot, Etherium, Stellar and EOS. It will also simplify the process of blockchain integration and reduce the development process for the cosmos community so as to reduce the cost of additional cross chain integrations in the case of finance and developing agencies. Polcadat will not kill ethereum will improve as fast as BSc.

Polkadot cannot be said to be a killer for ethereum if you cannot have a platform like ethereum and cannot replace ethereum in the crypto market like in coinmarketcap. because I know there are a lot of these issues that tell if there are many coins that shift Ethereum but it is impossible.

Polkadot is no doubt a really good project and technically it is far ahead. At the moment, however, Polkadot does not seem to me to be the killer of Ethereum. I think Polkadot needs more time to qualify. In my opinion, the BNB is now qualified to be the killer of Ethereum and that could happen very soon.

IMO, polkadot are indeed good coins to this day. However, it is still very difficult to compare with Ethereum, especially if it is said that it could make Ethereum fall. Anyway, if anything can make ethereum fall at this point, I think it's BNB. some of the aspects developed completely covered ethereum's shortcomings, and people started turning to BSC.

Agreed, POLKA is a bit complicated compared with BNB. All of ethereum users were moving to the BNB instead of polkadot. BSC is the real competitor for ethereum and it's not POLKADOT.
People are over rated about polka.
So many newcomers were choosing to use BSC as alternative chain for ethereum. I can't agree with the statement that said that if polkadot was the real competitof for ethereum.

if the dot or polka dot competing with ethereum is apparently still very early and not quite so I think. However, it is different if BNB will kill Ethereum later or BNB will replace Ethereum as the second best token after Bitcoin. I think if the BNB that replaces it is suitable

That's what I thought when ethereum was starting to increased the gas fee and Polkadot will be dethrone ethereum in the future.. but now seems BSC is getting growing because I've seen many BEP20 tokens has been created and some ERC20 tokens moved to BSC, seems binance is quite to be the next eth.

This year the market boom has been devastating for ethereum when it does not have much time to adjust the system, as a result, the cost of the network also skyrocketed with the boom in prices, this is a situation that ethereum never desires as competitors like BNB or Polkadot are devoting part of their resources to developing a field similar to the ethereum network. However, thinking about an usurpation for ethereum is still too naive when according to official sources, the network will have the most obvious adjustment and change in July

Are you serious!  Perhaps it should be admitted that DoT is not a real competitor to Ethereum now because ETH is too popular in mind and loyal fans.  But if BSC can become a real competitor then Dot is also able to expand its user market share because of cross-compatible platform, an expansion for defi works.  Some user bases run to BSC just because of Gas and the leading exchange's reputation - binance and I am not sure, the issue between Defi that BSC meets will be as perfect and secure as ETH.  The ETH 2.0 upgrade hasn't arrived yet, and will really appreciate this in a little while.

yes, i agree with your statement that bnb is a great competitor for eth. I think if BNB is an Ethereum competitor it is natural and logical, but if someone says Polkadot is an Ethereum competitor in my opinion that's very funny and impossible to happen

I personally don't think so, indeed Polkadot is being talked about at the moment. But it's not ETH if it's not able to survive and compete from year to year. and just look at yesterday ETH touched the highest figure in terms of price. even though ETH 2.0 hasn't been released yet.

Ethereum killer? No
A good and healthy competition that will give Ethereum a nice run for it's money? Yes, definately.

I think polka dots still need a time to be able to compete with the etherem, because the polka dots are not ready for that ,,,, but if BNB is meant by OP, I strongly agree because BNB has now proven to be able to shake the toughness of the etherem, even though ETH and BNB the price difference is still very far, but slowly but surely BNB will be able to steal the hearts of etherem users,

something impossible is being discussed. I'm still not sure about your statement and I think that will never happen with ethereum. ethereum still has a great developer and strong network, of course what you say has been achieved.

Polkadot has been on a steady increase and the project seems to be promising but I personally don't see the project supercede ethereum. I understand that most persons are fed up with the increasing transaction fees on the ethereum blockchain and that explains why blockchain such as the polkadot could suffice.

Yes, but please also note that when Ethereum has problems with transaction fees it doesn't mean that other tokens can easily shift it or kill it, because tokens like Ethereum are tokens that are very strong in crypto and are also very well known through the large community they have.

Polkadot has a limit of 100 projects that will work on the main network.
To get into the mainnet, you must first get tested in Kusama (testnet).
Ethereum has no limits. Because of these restrictions, I think 100 projects will be the best of all and there will be no scam.
Holders of DOT tokens and will choose the best projects through a vote

yes you're right about this. but it left him without freedom. the best projects are not always profitable. so isn't it better a platform like ethereum which gives everyone the freedom of making smartcontrac. Ethereum's only problem right now is the high transaction fees. if these issues can be resolved, ethereum will remain the best platform.

I'm not sure Polkadot is an Ethereum killer anyway, but if it is then indeed it needs to have a large community support just like Ethereum has, and that can't just happen over night it takes quite a considerable amount of time time to make people believe you have what it takes to beat Ethereum, and for now we aren't seeing that it's just bnb trying so hard to become to killer since it's like a pro-eth blockchain, but as always eth will remain as the king of all altcoins.

Right now only DOT can be the REAL Killer for ETH.

Especially if there is nothing special about ETH 2.0 and ETH still can't solve the problem of high cost fees, it will make Ethereum even worse.

DOT has a very difficult mechanism to understand by newcomers, the newcomers less interested to use DOT. You cant use DOT at the same time with your ethereum address.
These days people still prefer the platform that provides them all the simplest ways to interacted with blockchain.
If DOT was the next ethereum killer and it must be placed on the top 3 and BNB will be placed below DOT.
DOT is only an alternative chain and it's not a direct competitor for ethereum but it's not impossible for DOT to be evolved as a potential competitor for ethereum

I dont think it can replace or "defeat" ETH, maybe when ETH 2.0 flops then this will become a topic again. But for me I think Polkadot can exist side by side with ETH, if you look at it there are a lot of projects like (https://stp.network/) this that are seeing the potential of Polkadot.

Currently Polkadot is a coin that has great potential, but it doesn't seem like the ethereum killer. Ethereum has become a giant in the crypto world, it is number 2 after bitcoin.

Don't you think it's funny what you said?
  What if the BNB were a tough competitor to Ethereum, would you divorce that?
In my opinion, Polkadot does not have the strength to compete with Ethereum, but for BNB I am very sure that it will be a tough competitor for Ethereum.

I’ve done a lot of research and watched tons of other crypto analyst ....I think Dot is gonna reach extreme highs ....I feel it’s the silent killer . it has own best smart contract. ....polka dot should perform very well in the next coming months and there might be a correction to its price but that’s just a natural progression as the price rises

at the moment almost everything is blocked on the eth blockchain due to the really high fees, for now its worthy replacement is bnb / blochchain bsc, polkadot does not seem up to par at the moment in the future everything is possible

There's no way Polkadot will be able to kill Ethereum, because now it looks like a closer chance to kill Ethereum is BNB, and now BSC is becoming one of the attractions for many people leaving Ethereum which does have very high transaction fees.

No, because the strongest competitor is BSc. polkadot is still not worthy of being called a major competitor. maybe DOT has quite high marketcap, but if it is seen from the use case it is still very far away. that can kill ethereum right now is bsc, because they are the best platform at the moment.

polkadot is one of the altcoins that do have a pretty good future in my opinion but to compare between polkadot and ethereum of course the same as earth and sky ;D Ethereum is currently in second place while polkadot is ranked eighth based on the current cryptocurrency market capitalization and this certainly not without reason why ethereum's ranking is higher, currently the ethereum market is a total of $ 289 billion compared to Polkadot $ 31.7 billion and of course this is one reason why it is unlikely that polkadot will kill eth in the near future but in the cryptocurrency world anything can happen and it's better to see what happens in the future.

Ethereum's genuine killer is BNB. look the number of individuals are discussing the binance smart chain recently, and investigate the presentation of the BNB coin in the market today. Polkadot can't be lined up with ethereum yet, so it is extremely unlikely DOT can murder ethereum. Polkadot is just utilized as an elective decision and has not had the option to contend with ethereum.

I don't think it is only hype and in my opinion polkadot is very potential coin. It has a large amount of community and day by day it is increasing. In near future, it will shine and more people will join with it.

There is a very close alignment among the top 5 alts, and although ETH has always been top 2 unless some upgrades happen soon - fees are incredibly

disgusting right now - there is a chance that BNB (required for BNB) might take over.

Polakdot is another strong candidate but the closes so far with more utility ATM I agree is BNB.

What do you guys think, could ETH be cutting short on its ranking?

I agree with you that Polkadot is ethereum competitor, but not the strongest, in my opinion Eth  strongest competitor is Binance, because in addition to gas fees which are very cheap compared to Eth, BNB is also very well known and has become one of the largest and most popular exchanges. besides that BNB is also in third place after Eth

Polkadot is only starting to become popular in the last few months yes it can become an eth killer but it will take a long time they are only gaining attention to the public unlike eth its popularity and usecase is overwhelming and once eth 2.0 will become successful it will totally go wild competitors like Dot or Cardano must offer something different not yet offered by eth.   

If BNB is going to replace ethereum it looks like a very viable one, given the continuous development of Binance developers. I think they are preparing a BNB to replace ethereum

Some people has taughts that dot will be ethereum kill mean dot will cross ethereum price and position. But I am not sure because dot will take too much time cross ethereum like coin .
According to dot potential about after 5 year dot will be reach to the price of ethereum .
Still dot unable to beat ethereum at the moment

In general, BNB will obviously be very likely to replace Ethereum because the development of the two tokens always continues gradually, but for Polkadot I think it will be difficult to fight Ethereum because besides Polkadot is still very new in crypto when compared to Ethereum, Polkadot's development is also not as great as Ethereum and BNB, so replacing Ethereum at this point will not be possible for him, BNB alone is still not able to beat Ethereum, let alone Polkadot.

I believe in Polkadot's potential and what they're creating, as well as the scalability and bridge challenge they're attempting to solve; it's a true ethereum rival yet not yet a killer; we're waiting for ethereum to release their ETH2.0; if this doesn't happen soon enough, and gas prices continue to rise, the DOT community will send ethereum a huge run as more projects move to their network.

There are almost 500 projects being built but the list is really not impressive. It sounds just as unfinished as competitors and this one seems to be filling a niche that could easily be filled by others. Maybe there is something here but I assume that there is a reason that you can earn more staking here than you can elsewhere and it is not because this is the best investment idea.

https://polkaproject.com/

Do you have to look at the 500 projects now? because in the past there were also many projects that were of no use at all so there was no need to be seen and thought about, because there are still projects that are worth seeing and thinking about now.

Very Best project launched under polka Dot smart contract. A lot of people are saying Polkadot, which I believe in as well.. The lead person behind it, Gavin Wood co-founded Ethereum and claims he did most of the programming for the first version of it, is someone I believe in. Polkadot is going to dominate the blockchain world
 

There is nothing like an ethereum killer, ethereum is the second top cryptocurrency for a reason, its versatility in the development of smart contracts gave birth to most of the cryptocurrencies we have in the market today, including the great Defi projects like polkadot itself.
Defi is just a niche of decentralized projects and there will still be a lot of niches, but there will only be one ethereum.

Since the day I entered the crypto money market, many ethereum killer currencies have been introduced. people said the ethereum killer will be a lot of money. but, until now, no successful crypto money has emerged as an ethereum killer. and I don't think any cryptocurrencies will emerge after that, ethereum killer. Ethereum is very strong and it is very difficult to be a coin that can destroy it.

Don't be surprised at the words of other people because I have also come across stupid words from other people who say in the crypto space there will be coins that will kill Bitcoin, but until now it has never been seen and even Bitcoin is getting stronger at the top.

At the moment, Polkadot is developing very quickly and it is possible that in the future Polkadot will become a direct competitor to Ethereum, but at the moment I believe that Ethereum's direct competitor is, of course, Binance Smart Chain, and therefore so far Polkadot cannot compete with either Ethereum or Binance Smart Chain, but in the future, of course, everything is possible, and I still hope that another cryptocurrency will appear that can at least compare with Ethereum, because Ethereum blockchain is just a disaster due to high transaction prices.

Now a lot of projects use Polkadot blockchain for staking. Just some information about staking on Polkadot https://polkasyndicate.medium.com/ Polkadot blockhain is cheap and allows a cross-chain transactions. That is why it is so popular for staking.

We're not going to see Polkadot's new network development kill or stop the adoption of the ethereum network. We have seen how transaction costs from ethereum have decreased slightly even though they are not yet stable. but ethereum in the correction that occurred in the market we can still see is a strong asset for us to have in the long term. although DOT is a popular asset this year.

people can care less on staking but the real issue that they are battling now is the transaction fee and binance creations can offer a better solution than polkadot .
 not sure if binance can offer a staking too but even without that ,
 they have their own utility that cant be found in polkadot .
polkadot was once an etherium killer because there was no better solution than it but not anymore .

We don't need to doubt ethereum because after all ethereum is a promising coin,
indeed so far what is still an obstacle is the transaction costs which can be said to be still high,
I hope it can be resolved soon because many people complain about it

Indeed, currently polkadot is experiencing a tremendous increase, but if it will surpass the popularity of etherem it is very unlikely that this will happen, because the difference between ETH and polka-dot prices is very far, currently ETH is in second place.  while polkadot is in Rating 8 CMC.

Do you know the size of commissions in Ethereum blockhain for tokens transer? Now it is 100$. That is why Polkadot blockhain is so popular becaues it offers the best conditions for staking.

The price of commissions in Ethereum blockchain depends how busy is network. Now when market flat the price of tokens transactions in Ethereum blockchain is about 20$. When market raise the the price of tokens transactions in Ethereum blockchain can be 100$ or even 200$.

The problem with ETH gas fees is making people speculate on other platforms like PolkaDot. But once the ETH 2.0 kicks in, these fees will be burned and it will be a game-changer for ETH and we have to see the competition then. There are already a lot of good projects on the ETH platform and Dot may get some in the future.

I think if the problem is in the transaction fee, BSC has become a solution. the popularity of DOT, which I think is widely discussed and thought to rival ETH. but I believe it is too young for Polkadot to compete with ethereum to make such a claim.

So where is polkadot now? it does not even getting closer to Ethereum market cap.

Polkadot will never take ethereum's position for another 5 years.

Here we are again? fee still? lol Ethereum now is not having that issue, why not try checking the fee now before making this shitpost.

I think that once that Ethereum 2.0 is already online, Ethereum blockchain will once again be more efficient and more convenient to us crypto enthusiasts and they will once again patronize the ethereum blockchain and I totally disagree that Polkadot will be the Ethereum killer because there still many chain that has a very good performance compared with polkadot blockchain.

Ethereum killer? It seems an exaggeration to call it that way, although it cannot be denied that Polkadot has the potential to be a tough competitor to ethereum compared to other platforms, even platforms like stellar and neo are not able to match it.

In my opinion, there are still not many projects that use the Polkadot blockchain, you can prove what I say through a comparison of the three platforms, ETH, BSC, and DOT, try to compare the three platforms, which platforms are mostly used by new project developers now.

Yes, it is a bit excessive to call him an ethereum killer and it doesn't seem that easy for sure,
after all ethereum is still the top coin and ethereum will certainly continue to grow,
despite all that I think polka-dots should be applauded because they have come this far

I really like DOT but I don't think that it is an Ethereum killer. DOT's total supply is nearly ten times Ethereum's. It's not very possible to see DOT's price getting past ETH's in the future because of it I think.

If in Ethereum the price will be so high people would use other blockchains such as Polkadot. Now Polkadot blockhain is the most popular for staking. Here is statistics. https://twitter.com/PolkaSyndicate/status/1395076543236526083. This numbers shows how many people use Polkadot blockhain.

To beat a coin is not only seen from the price point of view, but in terms of trading volume and demand must also be seen, because if one of them increases significantly, the coin will experience an increase in its ranking which will also have an effect on its price increase.

Size of commissions in Ethereum blockhain depends how buzy is the network. When Ethereum falls the commissions is not high. Now it is 20$. But even 20$ make staking in Ethereum unprofitable at all for most token holders.

Polkadot has surely a big potential I believe. But people can create more supply than the current total supply if they want. Because the max supply is unlimited unfortunately. But it is not that easy to just do that. Because one who does such thing should ensure that people start using his/her own version of Polkadot. Otherwise, there will be no change if he/she makes some changes in the source code of the fork.

sorry it seems not, the number of people discussing BNB is not a factor in thinking that they are capable of being an ETH killer, because in fact the increase in BNB is also influenced by high ETH transaction costs, so investors are looking for alternatives in investing. the alternative is BNB because it is in 3rd place in crypto. Of course investors do this while waiting for ETH to find a solution to this problem.

Numerous tasks are contending with Polkadot, for example, ksm, Waves, Tezos, Cardano, Stellar. Ethereum clients are packed, and fabricating a brilliant agreement on Ethereum is ruling over different ventures. Consistently there are numerous activities that are blooming yet not many of them give the re-visitation of the financial backers perhaps they have some special task. ETH and even think will beat bitcoin however it must be tried through time as not all the time the market is bullish.

I think the real Ethereum killers are DeFi and AMM exchanges like Uniswap, 1inch, they are huge exchanges that are very costly exchanges, the presence of them also makes gas nowadays quite expensive.

Eth touch the highest price is because the hype of the whales they want to lure us to get a high price, because currently the development of eth has not stabilized in my opinion, and eth 2.0 takes quite a long time, I am a fan of eth when the cost is cheap, now have to switch because the cost is so expensive.

Consider the number of people who have recently discussed the Binance smart chain, as well as the current business presentation of the BNB coin. Since Polkadot can't even be matched up with ethereum, it's very doubtful that DOT will be able to destroy it. Polkadot is only used as a secondary alternative and has never had to compete with ethereum.

When market fall people lose their interest in cryptocurrency, that is why the commissions falls. I think that Ethereum blockhain will be able to compete with Polkadot only when appear Ethereum 2.0 and Ethereum will use PoS mining.

Waiting for Ethereum2. Now Polkadot blockchain has much more advantages that Etherum. Also it allows to connect Ethereum blockchain with Polkadot.

It is true that so far Polkadot is still not really the killer of ethereum,
but maybe if Polkadot continues to develop further it will be realized,
even so ethereum will also not stay silent i am sure ethereum will develop too

ETH is always aware of the challenges for sure they are aware to whatever threat that being showed up around the market, and adjusting to continue competing most  likely done.

Polka or any other platforms who also offering the same functions that ETH have will have their own ways to excel inside this market everything will relied now with how end users will adopt and used their services.

Only time knows which project will continue it's success and which will die eventually.

Ethereum is developing slowly. Now Polkadot has more advantages than Ethereum and in Polkadot it is possible to make cross-chain transactions. Polkadot is developing more quickly than Ethereum.

While people are waiting for the release of Ethereum 2, developers prefer to use Polkadot. In addition, Polkadot is not yet as overvalued as Ethereum.

In 2017 some others project like EOS and NEO claimed to be Ethereum killer, but finally not even close after more than 3 year. Currently the ecosystem of Ethereum still strong although a lot of project moved to BNB because reason of high gas fee and network congestion. In my opinion BNB is closer to be the Ethereum killer if Ethereum do not solve the problem of high gas fee as soon as possible. Although BNB more centralized but the fact is all user did not want to pay high fee of transaction.

Polkadot is categorized as a coin that has good prospects for short-term and long-term investment, but polka-dot cannot kill ethereum because the Ethereum network is still far superior to polka-dot so ETH will continue to rank second after bitcoin.

It is very new to most engineers, with just a modest bunch of tasks creating on Polkadot right now. Polkadot's worth is being FOMO exclusively by everybody. Numerous individuals said that will be Ethereum executioner however the reality said the distinctive thing when EOS was getting outperformed by another stage like LINK or even DOT itself.

Well, for now, the potential for polkadot to beat ethereum is very small. even a coin as big as BNB is still having a hard time catching up to Ethereum for now. well, however, the polkadot target before reaching ETH is BNB. however, it seems that the potential is also very small for that. yeah, but I'm looking forward to its development in the future.

Polkadot is now famous for the IDO that exists in the polkastater ecosystem. Very many successful projects there, If it is said polkadot is the killer of ethereum I think it is not wrong, because Whenever ethereum can be replaced, I think ethereum in 2.0 should properly solve the problem that should not be destroyed by polka dot

How can DOT be ETH killer，i dont believe it at all.Based on current cryptocurrencies, only BNB is likely to play this role.
But if you have said DOT is the Bull killer, i believe it, due to almost everytime after DOT pump, the crypto market is downtrend, haha, maybe this is just coincidence.

IMO, I believe they will die as soon as more innovative exchanges are created, because anyone can create those types of projects in crypto, specifically in defi, which is under smart chains. When Ethereum crashes, those on its network will most likely crash as well, so I'm not sure why UNI and 1INCH will be the ETH killler.

The only potential ETH killers are other chain networks such as BNB and the upcoming ADA, which is currently in development and has a solution in scalability.

but what does DOT have so far?
take a look at BNB and ETH. their market capitalization and product development are very good. We have to see how the adoption of the ethereum and BSC chains is the domination of new good projects.
it's too early to think of a DOT going that far.

I think that it is good that there is competition between the Ethereum and Polkadot blockhain. Such competition will allow these blockchain to develop more quickly and offere more opportunities to users.

I am a Big Fan Of Polkadot and I Believe Soon Dot will the Next Eth ... But Eth is also Good ... I have Full bag of both Eth and dot

Polkadot developing quickly because now cryptocurrency is very popular and there is a big demand in the project. But Polkadot started to develop in 2017 after successful ICO.

Many people argue without strong references. I don't think that Polka is the Ethereum killer. If someone says that, then they don't understand Ethereum. BSC is currently superior to Polka, but not necessarily able to beat Ethereum. The parent smart contract currently resides on Ethereum. Many successful projects resulted from Ethereum smart contracts. Of course they will fully support Ethereum.

Since Ethereum created on 2015 until now, many others project claimed to be Ethereum killer, but finally they can not do it. By long development, I think Ethereum dont want to surpass by others project. The community and the team will continously stronger and bigger and they will solve the current problem in Ethereum network.

I checked the numbers and think that now Polkadot is developing more quickly than Ethereum blockchain. Now Polkadot has many advantages and many projects use Polkadot for development of their ecosystem.

I think that if the cryptocurrency develops it is good. If one of the big coins falls, how will the market react? Of course the red trend. I think that cross-blockchain projects are the future behind them. It doesn't matter what you choose if there are bridges.

Ethereum is more best than polkadot , that second mentioned will die sooner that's for sure while Ethereum is still on the run specially the 2.0 version in which will really brings the comfort and trust from the users.
maybe this will take some time from now but we already saw the phase 1.
Nope that's wrong.. Ethereum will not fall just like that .

we have already saw this coin for years , once called being a shitcoin but bow proven they are all wrong.

Polkadot is a new project and it is a para string. Projects on Polkadot are still mostly ERC20, why is this happening? Are they an unfinished project and they create hype to get money from people?
So far I have no interest in projects like this. I prefer independent blockchain projects with lots of interesting functionality within the platform instead of the interaction form between other chains.

The real ethereum killer at the moment is Binance,
because now binance has a Binance smart chain that is ready to replace the ethereum network which is getting more expensive during transactions,
yes Polkadot is also currently a competitor, but still not hype like BSC,
many new users on Binance smart chain Of course Polkadot must be able to shift the dominance of BSC

Polkadot does have very good potential in the future, but in my opinion polkadot can't beat the popularity of etherem, because ETH has a bigger prospect than other altcoins including polkadot, the proof of eth's growth from time to time is increasing, I think it's very difficult for other altcoins  to kill ETH,

I also think so, there have been many projects that are considered to be killing ethereum but in reality nothing, even yesterday the ERC20 transaction fee has decreased, has made ETH holders start their transactions again, it will not be easy to kill ETH.

Polkadot was very popular at one time. Everyone was calling it 'Ethereum Killer' but that didn't happen. Polkadot still has some power right now, but no technology can rival Ethereum. Ethereum has demonstrated this over and over and is doing great right now.

Ethereum killer in Cryptocurrency has to surpass ethereum network in all ramifications!  There must be decentralisation that works,  there must be programming language that is understood and there must be willingness which is as a result of useable features which will drive traffic on polkadot network!  Until these highlights are achieved on polkadot,  I don't see it kicking ethereum to the side!

For now Polkadot has bettere technical characteristics than Ethereum, that is why ecosystem of Polkadot is actively growing. But for now Ethereum has more users and bigger ecoseytem than Polkadot. That is why Ethereum takes 2nd place for capitalization, Polkadot 8th place.

I am not sure about your statement, in my opinion, it is not a polka-dot who will compete fiercely with ethereum, but bnb or binance that will make ethereum shift from the throne that it currently has.

If you believe Polkadot is the real Ethereum killer then you should have a closer look into IOTA ;) It was released yesterday the devnet for IOTA 2.0. When the final version of 2.0 is ready and everything works as planned, IOTA will be the Ethereum killer. Unlimited scalability with no fees with less energy consumption.

now many bitcoiners around the world are using Ethereum services, whether they are beginners or those who have been in the crypto world for a long time, personally believe that Ethereum is better than anything and is even needed by bitcoiners even though nowadays something appears that can beat Ethereum someday, but it's not all that convincing :) :)

Ethereum started to work in 2014, Polkadot in 2017, so Polkadot has enough time for development and growing its community.

Now a lot of people are waiting the launch of Ethreum 2.0 with PoS mining. In such case the users will be interested to hold Ethereum in their wallets.
